TOPEKA, Kan. – Coming up at Washburn football and basketball games this season, alcohol sales will be available to patrons – a practice that has become more common at NCAA events. Washburn joins several other schools who have in-venue alcohol sales at their sporting events.
 
"We've been very intentional about our plan to add alcohol sales at our football games," said Washburn Athletic Director Loren Ferré. "We are trying to do it the right way, not rushing into it and working with our campus partners to make sure we have safety protocols in place. It's not something we're trying to immediately add to every single venue, but thought this was a good venue to begin with."
 
Beers that will be available for $6 a serving will be Bud Light, Michelob Ultra and a seltzer to be determined.
